Virtually everyone has heard of them, most people have seen or felt them! They're as common as mobile phones and most people think to get a pair is as easy as going into the nearest Optician with a Contact Lens sign in the window!
Yes, sometimes it is but why do we specialise? Why do so many of our patients come recommended by Opticians who fit lenses themselves?
The answer is simple. If buying Contacts were as easy as simply purchasing 'one fit tights' we'd be out of a job. The simple fact IS that there is no one kind, which conveniently fits every eye and this is where our vast experience and range of lenses is so vital.
We fit all the best 'branded lenses' available. One advantage of consulting us is that we are not tied to one or two manufacturers or even our 'own branded products'. If we can't find a standard design to suit, then we have the expertise to custom design lenses for you.
In short, many Soft Lenses come 'pre-packed' in a range of basic fits, but don't work for everyone. Manufacturers of these lenses make them like 'smarties' and then only lenses that 'sell' by volume! If you're a bit of an odd ball you'll not fit their lenses.
Specialising, we choose lenses to precisely fit your eyes rather than fit your eyes to the nearest shaped standard lenses made!
However, even despite all our specialist equipment and knowledge, in the final analysis the only acid test we can use to advise any patient what is clinically best suited for them is to have a FREE HOME TRIAL OVER A FEW DAYS!
Only by wearing lenses at work and at play can we, and you, decide what really will work best in the real World.
If we did only fit one or two designs we could only achieve 70 to 80% success rate but, with our full armoury of standard lenses PLUS our custom designs adding an infinite range, we are confident we can fit virtually anyone - just make that appointment and let us prove our point!
